Book For Boys Only



            I just finished reading For Boys Only by John Scieszka. It’s not what it sounds like though. A boys guide in middle school or something or how do deal with annoying friends or parents it’s just fun things. For instance in the book it tells you how to fight alligators and sharks or how to get out of being tied up in a chair. Also it has other fun thing to do with your friends like strategies for rock paper scissors. In all, the book has many interesting facts.
            One thing interesting about this book is that it doesn’t have a complete focus. I will go from big foot, to disease, or sports, and then something like how cell phones work. I find this very interesting because it doesn’t keep the reader bored on one topic. Also the book kind of repeats topics because it talks about sports and pizza and _____vs.______ multiple times. All in all this is an interesting concept in the book that I think keeps the reader interested.
            Also in the book the facts are interesting.  I always wondered how cell phones worked and the book had it in there! So I read that section multiple times to get a good understanding of how they do work. Also it had multiple sections with basketball, my favorite sport to play which I could relate to. In the book lastly it had things that made me wonder about it like world mysteries like the Bermuda triangle or whatever happen to Amelia Earhart? So I researched those topics! Now I know more than I did about those topics which are a good thing.
            Lastly this book has a lot of good attributes that would make it good for anybody to read even girls! Just kidding…
